Office-Civilian Radioactive

The Nevada Nuclear Waste Task is a government organization based in Las Vegas, NV, responsible for overseeing the environmental impact assessment and potential construction of a proposed repository at Yucca Mountain. The organization is working in collaboration with the Department of Energy (DOE) to evaluate the feasibility of establishing an underground repository for the disposal of commercial and DOE-owned spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste. The task force is actively engaging with the public through public hearings and providing resources to help individuals participate in the environmental impact statement (EIS) process. The Nevada Nuclear Waste Task is committed to ensuring transparency and public involvement in the decision-making process regarding the Yucca Mountain repository. With the release of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) on July 30th, the organization aims to collect public comments and address concerns related to the potential impact of the repository on the surrounding community and environment. The task force is also providing support and information to individuals interested in participating in the EIS hearings, which will be held in various locations in Nevada and other states.Generated from the website
